Im guessing you have already put in your att apn settings correct? as far as not being able to make calls I dont know but that might help

METHOD #1: MODDING SERVICES.JAR
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9639621#post9639621
The thread LINK ABOVE kinda blew up just recently,but i have known that there is a way to beat the throttle cap as it works on my g1 with cm5 and hd2. both AOSP ROMs
as i stated before in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848783
REMOVING the data throttle was easy on the g1...just had to toggle 2g and then back to 3g to get back to normal speeds until you reboot.
THE PURPOSE of this thread is for others to POST their MODs and their experience. i will keep the first 2 or 3 post updated according to how well the thread goes. I HAVE contacted eugene and master about this.
I havent been able to get a permanent way to remove the thorrotle modding MACNUT 14 services.jar. Anyone is welcome add their input

METHOD #2: SIMPLE APN CHANGE
DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE
credit goes to xda member sino8r for this xda post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9732223&postcount=108
Dont forget to hit THANKS for sino8r as well.
basically go to SETTINGS/WIRELESS and NETWORK/MOBILE NETWORKs/APN (Acess Points Names) and use these settings:
Name: kill throttle (or whatever you want)
APN: internet2.voicestream.com
Proxy: <not set>
Port: <not set>
Username: <not set>
Password: <not set>

MMS Proxy: <not set>
MMS Port: <not set>
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authetication type: <not set>
APN type: <not set>
this method has worked for me. i will be working more on a more permanent services.jar MOD in the mean time.
its recommended that you ONLY use this APN when youre being throttle and then switch back to the original APN after your billing cycle ends.
HIT THE THANKS BUTTON PLEASE
some ask for DONATIONs, i just ask for THANKs (button)...at no cost to you =P

reserve post 3

When I get the message I'll be trying this.

Well the apn alternative is working for me..at least for now,but o think tmobile will catch on. The alternative is an old apn and they only apply the throttle in the current apn.

I just received the message today. I'm going to try this. A quick question I'm running Axura.
I have to modified my current APN or do I create a new APN with these settings??

its best to just make a new APN just in case you ever want to switch back. i advise to swtich back to the normal APN after your billing cycle ends.
but i have no idea how long the old apn will be left unthrottled...-_- i have a feeling tmobile will catch on. in the meantime i am working on a permanent solution using the services.jar MOD which just so happen to not work with touchwiz roms... AOSP roms like CM does take advantage of this MOD

I made this one for Axura yesterday...

Maybe we can get a list of them going for every ROM..

Thought I was the only one that really got pissed off at the capping.. guess not.. thanks for opening this discussion in the vibrant section.. tried the services.jar method over in g2 threads ...but did not work... also I get capped every month but sometimes I do not lose my speeds.. I get the text, but still averaged around 2.7mb dl, 1.3 ul. Weird!!!

You guys are hitting your 5gig limit? Wha? I have an unlimited data plan, but I heard I'll be throttled down to dial up speeds if I reach a 5gig amount.
This is what you guys are talking about right?

Yes, most people get the unlimited plan but if they listen to pandora too much or browse the web too much then they might get throttled down to speeds lower then 2G
Quote from sino8r
Well, I think that is all... so have fun and get what you paid for which is UNLIMITED DATA (NOT THROTTLED CRAP THAT IS SLOWER THAN 2G!) T-Mobile has found a loophole with this throttle crap so they can still CLAIM it's unlimited! That may be technically true but it is utter crap and they know it. They are already being sued for this but I doubt anything will happen. This also meant for user who don't use their phone as a home internet connection. Those folks are the ones who made t-mobile do this. This is meant for people who use a normal amount of data like 10-15GB and aren't using mobile internet for torrents or useless crap. That is just a suggestion and obviously this can be used for anyone who wants to.

i thought the cap was 10 gigs. I used to hit 7 gigs a months all the time when i had tmobile and didn't get capped. I recently switched over to Simple Mobile and haven't been hit with a cap yet. Last month i hit 8 gigs with Simple mobile and was still getting my 3+ mbps.Im happy i jumped ship.
BTW, what kind of activity causes this? or does it mater. I use my data most on road trips, i turn the ipad on and watch netflix.

oO well this answers a question in the back of my mind I had about how fast Simple Mobile was compared to T-Mobile. Maybe I'll switch over 60$ flat rate sounds awesome.

internet problems after root

so i just got done rooting my vivid and its saying this one the mobile network tile " connection failed due to incorrect APN setting
any one else encounter this problem ??

go to settings, wireless & networks, and uncheck Mobile network.. wait a moment then check the box... if you still have the same problem you might want to verify your APN settings are correct.
also more info would be helpful, are you an ATT vivid user? did you flash a different rom, etc..

[Q] MAYBE 3G note fix

First I want to say I don't have a note so I can't confirm this myself. I was watching a review and the guy said he had hspa on his note. I poked around the site and saw some instructions on how to get a unlocked device working on tmo.
Can someone test this and post their findings? I would love a note on tmo!

Thank you for trying. AT&T works fine... T-Mobile has a different radio frequency ... its like trying to get an FM station on an AM channel. The guy in the video has AT&T which this phone is compatible with. The chip is able to support T-Mobile frequency but there is no driver to enable it... it just doesn't exist. The only way for this to work is if a dev (or Samsung) makes a driver for us. The other thread has a bounty of over $1000 now and nobody will do it still because it would take to long... so, until something changes, were stuck on edge or we have to move to AT&T. A side note; I bought a gophone sim card and paid the $50 unlimited for a moth and it worked perfectly so you could always just do that... but you can't port your number to a prepaid account.

[Q] Unlocked Samsung Captivate won't download MMS, even with the carrier correct APN,

Hello,
I have a Samsung i896 Captivate, which was originally with Rogers. I purchased it from a cell store second hand and unlocked. I am with Virgin Mobile. I have spoken to them about my issue that the MMS will not download. They say they're down loading but then never finish and eventually expire. Even as I added the APN according to the instructions from VIrgin, nothing has changed. Still not down loading MMS. They say that because the phone was not originally with Virgin they can't do anything about it. Is there anything I can do to get my MMS downloading even with my unlocked phone??? Please help and thank you for reading.

When you entered your APN, did you delete all the others first?
Being unlocked doesn't change much other than you can use it on any carrier. Did you check with them to see if they locked your MMS?
Also, MMS can only be downloaded on data (can't use wifi).

Thank you for your reply BWolf56! So I haven't checked with Rogers to see if they lock their MMS as they are not my carrier. (they were the original phone owners carrier) If I call them do you think they'll assist me even if I am not thier client?
When I entered the APN there were no previous APN entered so none to delete.
I turned off the Wifi and then turned my phone on and off, just to see if that made a difference...I don't even know what to expect will happen if I do find a fix. Will my pending (NOT expired) MMS be able to be down loaded?
Would you have any other suggestions as to how to fix this problem? I really want to receive these messages before they expire and am getting kind of desperate. Thanks again.

Locked MMS would come from your current carrier so you would have to ask them.
Although, if you were on Wifi this entire time, it's normal it didn't work. As I mentioned earlier, you need to be on your data (3G/H) to download MMS. You should be able to redownload the pending ones, just hold over the MMS and hit redownload.

Out of curiosity, did you set two APN's? By the looks of it, there are two for Virgin - one for default and one for mms. I had the worst time doing a Rogers apn setup and eventually had to go to the default one and put default,text,mms,...etc for the type. Virgin might work the same. If you already have figured your problem out, then sorry for a late reply.

There's also a LTE one and couple others but aren't needed on our phone.
So yeah, Virgin should have something similar to those. And of course, gotta be on data (3G)

Let's hope that's all it is, I couldn't help but notice that the reference was "APN" instead of "APN's". I'm just finishing work on a Captivate and happen to have a Virgin acct so I'll try it shortly and see

Oh my. I am so sorry, I didnt even get close to trying my virgin acct on the captivate I was working on. The customer was hovering to get it back, so sorry for misleading. How did you make out ElleJay? did you finally get your unit going?

i had a similar problem a few months back and sporadically since. i talked to rogers and was advised to go into apn type and edit it to say - internet,mms instead or default,supl,mms
try it and exit then go back in and make sure it stuck. for some reason it takes more than one try sometimes.
hope that helps

Remember, they bought with rogers as original, but are trying to setup virgin...but yeah, the overall consencus is that they may be missing an apn setting and "of course, gotta be on data (3g)" lol. Now just more concerned as to whether its up and running.
